These little guys have been around the shelter for awhile. We took updated photos today, hoping they get good homes soon! They all have such sweet personalities!

One More Round with Nature
It seems that my husband and I must lead boring lives, as all we photograph are dogs and nature. Ha! Well, I suppose that's all we've really had the opportunity to photograph. Although, Kyle has mentioned he wants to go out and shoot old dilapidated buildings and other industrial ...creations. And we (eventually) plan to get some shots of Kyle's co-worker's little guy, who we babysit on occasion. That should be interesting! Until then, I couldn't help but take some photos of the dandelions that are taking over Southwest Michigan. I have very fond memories of these pretty weeds!
And one last shot of this season's most beautiful flower. We headed to Tulip Time with my mom this past weekend; she got to come up and visit from Florida. For anyone who hasn't heard of Tulip Time (quite likely if you aren't from Michigan), it occurs annually in a little Dutch town called Holland. Tulips absolutely cover the town and little Dutch dancers dance in the street. It is a gorgeous site to see.

More Fun with the Season
This time, it was Kyle who headed out to the front yard to get some practice, and I think he got some pretty good shots! His favorite? The first one below. He calls it "art." Well, as we learned at the local Art Hop this past Friday, apparently "art" is cutting magazine ads up into weird shapes and taping them to the wall. If that's art, this sure is!

Springtime Flowers
One of the best things about Michigan is the beautiful tulips that pop up all over the place in Spring. Even better: they require no green thumb to sprout from the ground. That's my kind of flower! Over the last couple weeks, these flowers have popped up all around our house, and our neighborhood. They are so beautiful! They serve as a reminder to me that I've made it through another winter and the gorgeous, hot, summer days are not too far away.

New Dogs
I am learning that there is a never-ending stream of dogs arriving at the shelter, and it's an extremely heart-breaking discovery. I do delight, however, in seeing the dogs I've photographed be adopted into loving homes. It is such an incredible feeling to walk into the shelter and find that a dog you've come to know and love is no longer occupying a kennel... they've become a family member somewhere.
Here are some of the new sweeties that have arrived.
